Shell script help to eliminate files of todays date
Hi
I am very new to shell scripting and have written a script (below).
However the directory I am searching will contain a file with a .trn extension each day which I want to eliminate.
Each day the file extension overnight will change to trx, if this fails I want to know.
Basically what I want to do is add to the script to eliminate any files with a TRN extension for todays date, can anyone help me please.
I am using unix version 11.11
thanks in advance.

zgrep
ZGREP(1) General Commands Manual ZGREP(1)NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression
SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename...
DESCRIPTION
Zgrep is used to invoke the grep on compress'ed or gzip'ed files. All options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is speci-
fied, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and
fed to grep.
If zgrep is invoked as zegrep or zfgrep then egrep or fgrep is used instead of grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses
it as the grep program to be invoked. For example:
for sh: GREP=fgrep zgrep string files
for csh: (setenv GREP fgrep; zgrep string files)
